"She's the sweetest girl in schooll" en-
Enthusiastically exclaimed one young miss TO
another, as they passed down the street to-
gether. Edith Is so kind, and gentle, and
unselfsh, every one likes her. And she
has lovely golden hair and pretty eyes.
Isn't it n pity her complexion is so bad; it
spoils her looks. And then she has such
dreadful headaches" The girls skipped
along, but it happened Edith's mother bad
heard what they said. 1t set her thinking.
What could he done for those headaches
and the rough, muddy complexion, that was
such trial to her gentle daughter. She
recalled what she had read of DR.. Picrce's
Golden Medical Discovery, and on the spur
of the moment she slipped into drug store
and bought a, supply, Eiith took it faith
disordered blood, relieved the headaches,
made her skin soft, fair and rosy, and now
she is not only the sweetest girl in school, +"
but the most beautiful.

An English food inspector, Mr..
James Bell, finds that horsetlcsh and
beef can not be positively distinguished
by external appearance, but that the
fat is reliable test The horse-fat is
fluid at n temperature of 40 degrees,
and has specific gravity at 100 de-
grees of about 90S.7; while the fat of
beef melts at 40 to 120 degrees, and is
considerably lighter. The low melting
point of the fat will show when sau-
sages are made from horse-meat.-Ch
cago Tribune.
With rapidly increasing popula-
ton there will be danger of excessive
dearness of meat, such rs prevails in
the densely populated countries of Eu-
rope, and from this we can only be
saved by such Improvement in breeds
of stock as will produce beef at less
cost. On cheap lands the short-horns,
aiming at beef production almost ex-
clusively, have been best adapted to
this end. But in the older sections of
the country, where labor and skill
combine to offset the increased price of
land, the Holsteins, bred for milk and
butter as well as beef, will certainly
have the preference. - Boston Tran

MUTES OF ALASKA.
superstItions Prevailing Among the Ma
tives OF the Bleak Territory.

tlyes OF the Bleak Territory.
These people have no name as race,
but merely designate themselves as
Mutes, word which means "dweller
at or upon" Aperson born at the vii.
lagc of Tigerach is Tigerach Mute,
and so on. In appearance they rescm-
BILE the Mongolian type, having prom
ninent cheek-bones, oblique eyes and
straight, coarse black hair. If it were
not for the thick layer of dirt covering
their faces, their complexion would be
almost white, and this, with their
brown, sparkling eyes, and white
teeth, would render them very agree
able to the sight.
A belief in the presence of evil spirits
constitutes their only religious idea.
There are among them individuals
called toonrachs, who perform the gen.
cral offices of medicine men," If q
person is i'll before the whaling season
opens, the toonrach is called upon to
exercise his skill in driving the evil
spirits from the body of the sick per-
son, and from the sea, that the whales
or seals may arrive. His operations in
almost every case are the same. After
long silence he suddenly begins to
roll his eyes, while convulsive shakes
penetrate his framei he gives utterance
to groans and sighs, intelmingled with
sentences pertaining to the subject in
hand. During his performance con-
tinuous beating of drums is kept up,
and he falls, at the close of his efforts,
into actual paroxysms. Froth exudes
from his mouth, his eyes glare and roll,
and his face is contorted. After u
period of rest he regains his composure,
begins again his interrupted smoking,
and receives his pay for the services
performed
Some curious superstitions are to be
found among the Mutes. If one OF
them is ill, iron tools, such as axes oil
knives, can moi be used in the house.
When man dies, his sled, broken in
pieces, is placed upon his grave, with
furs, spears and rifles. If he has killed
many whales, the long jaw-bones of the
Jalaena are placed over him in an up
right position, to mark the spot. Tho
Mutes are accustomed to make larg,
circuit in passing the resting-place o
the dead, and will on no account toucl
any thing which has been once depos
tied at funeral. Youths Companion

FARM ACCOUNTS.
A simple System of bookkeeping which
Ivory Agrlcnlturlst Should Adopt.

A Simple System of bookkeeping which
Every Agricultural Should Adopt.
There are frequent articles in the
agricultural papers urging farmers to
keep accounts of all of their farm opera
tions. If they intend by this that they
should keep regular system of books,
by double or single entry according to
established rules, it is all nonsense. Not
one farmer in fifty will ever do wen
If his education has qualified hnm for
such bookkeeping, But we do insist
that every farmer, mechanic or laborer
should keep journal in which he should
enter every item of money received or
paid out and what for, and the exact
date. Get plain blank book, and
enter every transaction in it. If sales
are made for cash or for trade, so state
in the journal. If money or property is
derived from any source, put in the
book on the same page with the date,
stating who from and what for. The
writer has done this ever since he came
to Iowa, thirty-two years ago, and now
/: is valuable book of reference. 1t
tells when certain transactions took
place, how much was paid or received.
And there is another and more inn
portant reason why this should be done.
This world is full of wicked men and
women, and you have got to die some
day, and your property for which you
have labored long and hard, may be
swept away by dishonesty trumpcd-up
accounts. Thousands of such cases are
occurring every year. Claiming again
debts already paid. But if you have in
your journal n statement with date
when such claims were paid, the courts
in settling estates acknowledge the
validity and correctness ofsuch entries.
The writer once paid off his own note,
and without marking it paid, or making
an entry on his journal, put the note in
atill in his desk. A few years afterwards
the desk was sold and the purchaser
found the note behind the drawer.
He demanded the payment of the note,
sued for it and recovered pay again. If
an entry in its regular place had been
entered in our journal of the day it was
paid it would have aided the jury in
coming to conclusion when one party
swore the note was paid, and the other
that it was not.
Besides, when years have passed it is
so satisfactory to look back over the
journal and see what certain things cost
And it frequently settles when certain
events happened, when Journeys were
made, and thousand things which
such journal will solve. 1t is always
worth ten times as much as it costs. 1t
is satisfaction and a safety. Enter
every item right along, day, price,
quantity and person. Any one who
can write will find such n journal an
easy matter, and when once accustomed
to it, there will be found a pleasure in
attending to it.-DcS MoineS (Ia.) Reg

switched his tail in mcnacing way,
and plainly saw his talons dig into
the earth rs he gathered his muscles
for great effort. While there was q
settled determination on his part to
make food of me, there was n certain
trepidation of his general dcmcanor.
1t was plain that he was mystilicd, but
his fcrocious nature prevailed.
The tiger kept abreast of the lion,
and he was the first to take the alarm.
He evidently scented the lion, for he
reared up, snuffcd the air, and then
flung out paw and spat like an angry
cat. This noise startled the lion, and
he rose up, showed his teeth, and took
his eyes off me for the first time.
Either animal could easily have leaped
the wall, but neither attempted it. The
tiger took on ficrcer look and drop
ped some of his stealth, but the lion
reached the end of the wall
first, uttcring n roar of defiance
and evidently expecting to meet an
enemy. The tiger was four or five feet
from the end of the wall, and the move
he made was 50 quick that my eyes
could not follow 1t. As the lions head
showed around the wall the big cat
made II lightning spring, and the next
instant the two were rolling over and
over at my feet, fighting us only such
beasts can fight, and growing in n
manner to make my hair turn gray. 1t
was then that strength came back to
me, and | rose up, but instead of rush
ing away / ran back into the building.
Reaching the rear wall | stood there II
prisoner and n spectator. The first
clinch lasted about three minutes, and
was characterized by such ferocity as
can not describe. While the lion
and the tiger are probably natural
enemies, | suppose the fact that both
had planned to make meat of me,
and both felt themselves disappointed,
aroused all their fcrocity. Most of the
time during the first clinch they were
rolling over and over like big ball,
tearing, biting and growing, and the
movements of the tiger were much the
quickest. They finally separated, each
backed off n few feet, and each stood
broadsde to me. l could see half a
dozen blood-stains on the lions side,
while the tiger had been terribly bit
ten about the neck, and there was n
bloody scratch on his quarter. They
faced each other for about n minute,
the lion roaring in deep bass and the
tiger snarling like an enraged cat.
Then, as swift as flash of lightning,
the tiger bounded through space and
alighted on the lions back, and a-ain
they rolled and tmblcd about. The
fight was too fierce to he kept up long,
and too determined not to result in
severe injuries.
When the beasts finally struggled to
their feet, the tiger had hold of the lion
Just back of the foreshoulder and he
hung there and worried the king as II
dog would u sheep. Twice the lion
yelpcd out rs if he had lost his courage,
but he suddenly made a grand exertion
broke the tigers hold, and then turned
and caught him by the neck. thought

Want Of Sleep

Is sending thousands annually to the
insane asylum and the doctors say this
trouble is alarmingly on the increase.
The usual remedies, while they may
give temporary relief, are likely to do
more harm than good. What is needed
is an Alternative and Blood-purifer.
Ayers Sarsaparilla is incomparably
the best. It corrects those disturbances
in the circulation which cause sleepless-
ness, gives increased vitality, and re-
stores the nervous system to healthful
condition.
Rev. I. G. A. Cote, agent OF the Mass.
Home Missionary Society, writes that
his stomach was ont of order, his sleep
very often disturbed. and some inn
purity of the blood manifest but that
perfect cure was obtained by the use
of Ayers sarsaparilla.
